Contractor Safety Management

Contractor Safety Management

A Winner of the Educational Award by the World Safety Organization Contractor safety management is often seen as nothing more than a subset of general safety management in that no special consideration needs to be given to understanding the difficulties of the contract environment. This leaves contractors endlessly juggling competing and sometimes contradictory demands made by the principal in the name of safety and health. Instead of managing the work in accordance with the contract and the agreed health and safety management plan contractors find themselves having to cope with moveable ever-changing expectations about the way that health and safety is supposed to be managed. Contractor Safety Management explores how the contracting principal relationship can influence safety outcomes and how a principal's role in overseeing the safety performance of its contractors is different from managing safety in its own organization. It brings together perspectives from different disciplines including legal health and safety management operational and contract and procurement management. The editor and chapter authors examine real-life cases the issues that they present and the way that safety management was handled. By sharing lessons across disciplines the book identifies critical issues in contractor safety management and raises awareness of its complexity and importance. It provides wide-ranging and comprehensive insight into the concerns confronting organizations managers and safety managers in contracting relationships. Offering guidance on how critical issues might be addressed the book uses real-life cases to draw conclusions from successes and failures that can guide future contracting strategies for effectively controlling health and safety risks in a contracting environment.

Safety Metrics for the Modern Safety Professional

Safety Metrics for the Modern Safety Professional

This book investigates the world of leading indicators and explores how they can be used effectively providing 21st-century safety professionals with alternative metrics and guidance which will enable them to make a difference in managing risk within an organization. The safety and health profession has been hindered by ineffective metrics for decades with the primary metrics of choice being the OSHA incident rate and lost time accident rate. This narrow focus on what constitutes loss is not in line with the new concepts of managing the total risk that an organization faces. The book looks at indicators on a tactical level where they can be very effective in providing management with clear direction and manageable items they can utilize to elevate the safety efforts of an organization. It also explores the limitations of leading indicators at the strategic level and how they’re tied into the management merit review system to determine bonus and salary increase structures. It features measurements of areas of loss not usually considered by safety managers suggests ways to use leading indicators and promotes a departure from traditional body count thinking. This book will be of interest to safety professionals involved in risk management in the modern workplace. | Safety Metrics for the Modern Safety Professional
